Large Signal Y-Parameters

svnoosha

Dear All,

This thread from a few years ago, https://community.cadence.com/cadence_technology_forums/f/rf-design/33221/large-signal-y-parameter-or-s-parameter, concerns large-signal y-parameters. The thread ends with an open-ended question on whether it is possible to convert the large signal s-parameters from the LSSP analysis into large signal y-parameters. I was wondering if there are any updates on this- I am currently running MMSIM15.1 and the calculator does not allow me to call ypm() on the LSSP results, as the previous thread suggests.

I need to characterize the large-signal parameters of a two-port network and have currently been using transient analysis and calculating them from there, but this is cumbersome and not very clean. I was wondering if the question from a few years ago has been answered and if it is possible to use the LSSP results to extract y-parameters or if this is invalid.
